British Polio Fellowship – Birth of the Paralympics

Watch Out for Best Of Men – BBC2 9-10.30pm Tonight

Entertaining drama about the birth of the Paralympics in 1948. The remarkable Dr Guttmann comes to Stoke Mandeville Hospital and begins to transform the lives of his patients. They are paralysed soldiers, written off and facing death from neglect. Their big breakthrough comes when Guttmann introduces sport into their rehabilitation.

Also, Did you see Fellowship member and Team GB Paralympic swimmer James Crisp on BBC Look North last night? If you missed it, don’t worry, you can watch again here until 6pm tonight: http://ow.ly/d0wz3
